food IS a theme park
It’s the holidays, and that means it’s peppermint season — and we’ve tasted SO MANY peppermint treats already this year!
Minnie Peppermint Cookie
From peppermint cupcakes to peppermint churros to a candy cane martini, we’ve had our share of minty treats!
We’ve been very busy eating all the holiday snacks and drinking all the holiday drinks all over Disney World!
Red Velvet Wreath Cupcake
But some of our favorite treats have involved peppermint, because peppermint is the flavor of the holidays! So we’ve been eating peppermint churros and chocolate peppermint bark, while drinking peppermint chocolate beer and a peppermint kiss drink.
We love enjoying all the flavors of the holiday season!
Chocolate Peppermint Creme Brulee
And we’ve eaten so many amazing holiday snacks lately, including a poinsettia cake, the super-chocolatey Yuletide Wishes, a holiday yule log, and the Fa La La Funnel Cake. The holidays have definitely arrived in Disney World!
It may be October, but that will not stop Disney from beginning their winter festivities!
Holiday Bag
Disney announced the dates for the Festival of the Holidays back in September, but you can start celebrating early with these SWEET new Peppermint Minnie Ears!
We just gotta duck over to Disneyland for a quick sec! Brb in a jingle!
Mint Julep Bar
That’s because the Candy Cane Beignets are calling and we MUST ANSWER! Hold the rest of our calls! We gotta hit up that little magical window in Disneyland’s New Orleans Square A-S-A-P!
Standing in the Grand Floridian’s gorgeous lobby during the holidays is like being inside a Christmas dreamworld!
Disney’s Grand Floridian Christmas Tree
But this beautiful holiday dream comes with some delicious real-life snacks! From the treats you can find at the Gingerbread House to the holiday options at Gasparilla, there’s so much to choose from. Check out our review of the Peppermint White Chocolate Eclair we just tried!
As if we haven’t seen enough adorable holiday merch pop up all over Walt Disney World (We’re looking at you Mickey Elf popcorn bucket!!)…
Mickey Elf Popcorn Bucket
The Peppermint Bottle Topper we first spotted in Disneyland has made its way to the East Coast!
It’s been quite the adventure eating and drinking our way around Disneyland’s Festival of Holidays at California Adventure.
Tis The Season at California Adventure!
Annnnd now we’re cruising down to the Cozy Cone Motel to sample a sweet treat they’re offering this holiday season!
We’re headed to Animal Kingdom for their biggest holiday celebration ever!
Animal Kingdom this Holiday Season!
This year, the park is getting in on the holiday action with new offerings, decor, and treats! We’ve seen Peppermint soft-serve, and the Christmas lion paw cookie, but if you’re getting just ONE thing at Animal Kingdom during the holidays, make it this!
I was recently in Walt Disney World for a holiday visit because — HOLIDAYS!
It’s the MOST Delicious Time of the Year!
And I had an SUCH a great time, checking out treats and eats throughout the parks and resorts.
